  1. So….I’m oblivious to all this (and many other things) I used to get something in the mail showing my different sleds and needing to be completed to get new ValTags .   How does it work now ???  Do I just show up at Service Ontario and whisper things to them like all my serial numbers ??  And they will believe me ???

    or do they want me to do something magic on FacePlant ?  
    you would think that if there is a new process the JIC (jerks in charge) would make it public and spend 70 million $$ on a communications campaign to make the process public in order to save the 500,00$ that they think they will save. It is the government of course and they know best.  Of course, if they keep it a secret they can probably line their coffers with Fines !  
    Of course some Minister of Something probably posted it on X, formally known as Twitter which is past tense for twat.

  2. I remember our last stay there mid 90’s I think.  After supper, I was asked if I wanted a post dinner drink and I responded “yes”, a rusty nail please.  After some time passed, the waiter came back and asked how to make a rusty nail and I gave him the products and suggested quantities.  After a while, he came back to the table carrying a bottle of scotch, a bottle of drambuie and a glass and said, “ do you mind mixing it yourself ?”   Graciously, I agreed and I don’t remember a lot of the rest of that night.

  4. Cedar Meadows.  Good parking for trucks and trailers, great restaurant on site for those of who like to park sleds at the end of the day and not have to walk, cab, sled to eat at a fast food joint, super breakfast, good snowmobile package, on the trail (ok, A trail of 50 yards off the main trail).  Good spot for staying and doing daily loops.

    As posted on the HOO facebook page in the late fall the land owner has pulled consent. They apparently own a number of farms west of 12 that the H3 used to run through. It's a shame because I really liked that section of trail.

     

    The trail crossing at Kydd Rd had one of the best views in the entire area.

     

    Thanks for your response.  Like many others, I don’t use Facebook and find sites like OC far superior.  
    sorry to hear it is as I feared.  It was a great section of trail and, as you say, the crossing at Kydd was a wonderful view.  
    was consent pulled for this year specifically because of planting or has it been pulled for good?  Shame in either case.  
    Comparing the last paper map I have and the IATG, it looks like the entirety of B103 through the HOO area has also disappeared.  Really?
     

    ugh !

    Hey everyone! 
     

    Not sure if this site is still active or not but planning to do the RAP with a buddy this year.. (pending lockdown etc.) Leaving from North Kawartha and travelling counter clockwise. Looking for info on gas stops, overnight stops and any other info you may have to pass along.
    Ideally we’d like to complete it in 4 days.

     

    Thanks in advance.

    Welcome Back !!
